Announcement: 300 Follower Giveaway Winner!!

Hey everybody!!

I'm so excited to announce the winner of my first giveaway! I'm going to make this announcement short and sweet, because I know you all want to know who won as well! I used random.org, and put in the number of comments then got a random number, and that corresponded with a comment number. So, without further a du, the winner is:

Brigid from Small Town Fabulous! I've already contacted her, so when she contacts me back she'll be receiving in the mail:

Three Slatkin & Co. mini candles from Bath and Body Works in the scents Caribbean Escape, Peach Bellini and Bahama Fizz.

A NYX Eyeshadow Trio in the colors Aloha, Mink Brown, Deep Bronze.

A NYX soft matte lip cream in the color Istanbul.

A Maybelline Baby Lips in the color Peach Kiss.

If you didn't win, don't worry! I'm going to be doing another giveaway soon--I think they're SO fun! :) I hope you enjoy, Brigid! :)

Thanks so much for your comment on my Friday Faves! To answer your questions...Matt Bomer is only the love of my life. He's Neil Caffrey on White Collar which comes back July 10 just in case you were wondering. And that is actually Reese Witherspoon in the sweater. She totally could pass for Carrie though. I would have though so too if it didn't say her number under the photo on Pinterest.

Your summer has sounded so amazing so far! I'm so jealous! I wish I lived in Cali. It seems like the perfect place to spend summers. I am obsessed with bon fires. I love how they smell. I wish I could have shopping sprees like you've been having. I have to save all my money for France. I leave in 19 days and am kind of freaking out! I seriously cannot wait. Anyway, thanks for your comment again! I honestly love it when I see I've gotten a comment from you. They always perk up my day :)

Hey! I got your comment on my post with the Britney quote. I'm sorry you feel that way about Britney and completely respect your opinion. However, she did say that she doesn't want to be a role model but an inspiration. More than that though, something I have never backed down from is that Britney is my complete and number one role model. I look up to her not for the mistakes she's made in the past but for the obstacles she's overcome. She is a strong person who has had to get past bad relationships, mental illness which is not a choice but a disease and so many other challenges that most average people wouldn't be able to handle. As for actions such as building houses, I know plenty of people who do charity work similar to the things you've mentioned but when it comes to them as people they are awful and have actually had a hand in bullying me at a point in my life. But Britney did have an organization for several years that strived to give younger people the access to education in the arts, something that is lacking still today. Now, I promise I'm getting off of my Britney soap box lol. Again, I just wanted to let you know I completely respect your opinion but I felt I needed to explain why quotes from her such as this one and just her as a person mean so much to me. :)

Thank you all so much for coming to check out my blog! I read every one of your comments, and I can't wait to hear from you! If you have any other questions or requests or anything, feel free to email me at itsagirlsworld54@yahoo.com ! :) xoxo Sarah
